HMS Jumna: A Glimpse into the Past of the Royal Navy This vintage lantern slide depicts the majestic HMS Jumna, a steam-powered cruiser that once proudly served in the Royal Navy during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a captivating glimpse into the history of the British naval fleet. The HMS Jumna, launched in 1892, was a second-class cruiser, measuring 365 feet in length and displacing over 5,000 tons. Armed with a formidable battery of twelve 6-inch guns, she was a formidable presence on the seas. The ship's sleek lines and elegant design reflect the advanced naval technology of the time, showcasing the ingenuity and engineering prowess of the late 19th century. The lantern slide, with its rich, warm tones, transports us back to a bygone era. The HMS Jumna is anchored in a serene harbor, her sails furled, and her guns trained towards the horizon. The water reflects the golden hues of the setting sun, casting a warm glow over the ship and her surroundings. In the background, a few small boats can be seen, adding a sense of scale and activity to the scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the sea and the ships that have sailed upon it. It offers a unique perspective into the history of the Royal Navy and the role that steam-powered cruisers like the HMS Jumna played in shaping the world we know today. The lantern slide is not only a beautiful work of art but also an invaluable historical record, reminding us of the rich maritime heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us.
